DVD: Soldiers Speak Out
$18.00 $14.00 On Sale!
DVD-SSO
THIS DVD NEEDS TO BE SEEN BY EVERY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT IN THE COUNTRY. It's short enough (28 minutes) to show in a class. It effectively counters the disinformation recruiters routinely tell young people about enlisting.
"A powerful, first-hand testament to the reality of the military experience, told entirely in the words of American veterans who have been to war and now oppose it."
Soldiers Speak Out sheds light on the growing and courageous anti-war and anti-occupation movement within the military and military families.

$19.00
DVD-TGT
Produced & directed by Patricia Foulkrod (2006) • 1 hour 18 minutes.
This film may well be the best feature-length documentary about recently-returned Iraq war veterans yet made. Ideally, show it in conjunction with the film, "Soldiers Speak Out" (28 minutes). Together they make a very persuasive case against war, militarism and sacrifice to a trumped-up false "noble" cause.

DVD: Why We Fight
$29.00 $24.00 On Sale!
DVD-WWF
Directed by Eugene Jurecki • Documentary • 90 minutes.
It is nowhere written that the American empire goes on forever? Is US foreign policy dominated by the idea of military supremacy? At last, a film that you can show anyone, even your Republican and (still) pro-Bush neighbors, relatives and friends. They will even watch it all and will learn a few facts from this remarkable true story of the growth of America's military-industrial complex, a term first used by President Eisenhower in his 1961 farewell speech to the nation. This is an even-handed documentary film – in an era of highly polarized views.

Book: Soldiers In Revolt: GI Resistance During the Vietnam War
$16.00 $14.00 On Sale!
BK-SIR
by David Cortwright * with a new introduction by Howard Zinn * 355 pages
SOLDIERS IN REVOLT documents one of the least known and most important aspects of the Vietnam War: the rebellion among U.S. soldiers opposed to the war. From the front lines to stateside military bases, the U.S. armed forces were wracked by widespread resistance, including combat refusals and mutinies. GI's produced more than 250 antiwar committees and underground newspapers to voice their discontent. A new chapter looks at the enduring imprint of this period on the U.S. military and the lessons this era holds for the U.S. occupation of Iraq.

Chillingly relevant to our times, filmmaker and journalist Peter Davis illustrates, in poignant graphic terms, both the horrors and lessons of the Vietnam war. Edited from over 200 hours of footage - incorporating newsreels, telecasts, even scenes from Hollywood war movies - Davis' film captures the experience of war through multiple perspectives, depicting its effects on the diverse range its participants (from "doves" to "hawks," military advisors to bombing victims, G.I.'s to bar girls) both in Vietnam and the United States.

DVD-TIN
Kenneth Brady's film is very powerful, reflective, poetic and brutrally honest. It is simply one man speaking directly to the camera. No film crew, no audience present. It is a revelation , as if it were made so that the information he tells us is recorded and preserved for a time capsule, to be viewed by a future generation. He has made it to tell us today, as well as those in the future that, yes, some of us – many, in fact – knew of the things that our government did in our name, and even though some did not remain silent, they were not able to prevent the atrocities. But, most importantly, the truth-tellers may have helped to limit the extent of the deeds. His point is that the truth-tellers of every era, are essential. Still, this film is not a guilt-trip for those who knew better but did not act or do enough. It is a plea to all of us to always, under all circumstances, do what we can to recognize the connections, refuse to be complicity and act courageously against actions committed in our name by the state. Show this film in home screenings and as part of a free community film series. It's a uniquely engaging form of narrative documentary that will captivatethe audience. "The Time Is Now" heralds a new voice and a courageous new examination of America. This searing political monologue exposes shocking discoveries in a way that is part plea, part confessional, and part outcry. Acathartic antidote to apathy and numbing complacency.

REEL BAD ARABS take a devastating tour of the American cinematic landscape, moving from the earliest days of silent film to today's biggest Hollywood blockbusters to reveal an astonishing and persistent pattern of slanderous Arab stereotyping. Featuring acclaimed author and Hollywood film consultant Dr. Jack Shaheen, the documentary exposes America's long love affair with Arab villainy and buffoonery, from over-sexed Bedouin bandits and submissive maidens to sinister sheikhs and blood-thirsty terrorists. Along the way, the film provides striking insights into the origin of these images, their disturbing similarities to anti-Semitic and racist stereotypes from the past, and their political resonance during key moments of conflict in U.S. history...
